When it comes to buying or leasing a box truck, it’s a toss-up. Now you have the option to buy a new box truck. You can buy it outright, make monthly payments, or lease the vehicle.
The same can be for a used one. The difference is with a new box truck it still has the factory warranties and such. If you buy from a dealership make sure they offer a good warranty.
Buying from a private seller won’t give you any warranty in most of the cases.

If you buy used, make sure you know the driving and maintenance history of the box truck.
Also a used vehicle might be cheaper at the moment of purchase, but could cost you more with hidden maintenance issues, and that way you will have to visit the diesel truck repair shop a lot more often then you’ve planed.
